10/100BaseT and 10/100/1000BaseT Connectors
The ASA 5585-Xappliance supports 10/100/1000BaseT ports. You must use at least a Category 5 cable for 100/1000Base-TX operations. You can use a Category 3 cable for 10Base-TX operations.
Figure F-1 shows the 10/100BaseT (RJ-45) port pinouts.

Appendix F Cable Pinouts
RJ-45 to DB-9 or DB-25
Examine the sequence of colored wires to determine the type of RJ-45 cable, as follows:
•
•
Straight-through—The colored wires are in the same sequence at both ends of the cable.
Cross-over—The first (far left) colored wire at one end of the cable is the third colored wire at the other end of the cable.
• Roll-over—The colored wires are in the opposite sequence at either end of the cable.
lists the roll-over (console) cable pinouts for RJ-45.
